Let It Shine Songtext
(Chorus)
Is this what we were made for?
Oh Lord, stand bright and shine
Is this what we were made for?
Oh Lord, my light shines bright
I've got the light, I've got the light
Then let it shine
I've got the light, I've got the light
Then let it shine
I've got the light, I've got the light
Then let it shine
I've got the light, I've got the light
Then let it shine
Shine bright

(Verse)
I shine bright like a diamond
Fast forward through life, now let's rewind them
Press play, it's 2003
I'm on the corner with brothers, the police fuckin with me
The devil up on my shoulder, Jehova walkin with me
I'm whippin that baking soda, the odor all in my genes
I got haters all on my team
These niggas snitchin like bitches, all Jerry Springer jeans
I got 2 kids to feed
My mother she can't control her, my father fake of the streets
Cooking bangin the soda like checkers, I gotta eat
This game chess not checkers, I'm checkin you with the heat
Yellow tape and white sheets
Price tag on toll, these killas they gotta eat
Sweet dreams, I came over thinkin this shit's sweet
It's predator versus prey and I'm preyin down on the weak

(Chorus)
Is this what we were made for?
Oh Lord, stand bright and shine
Is this what we were made for?
Oh Lord, my light shines bright
I've got the light, I've got the light
Then let it shine
I've got the light, I've got the light
Then let it shine
I've got the light, I've got the light
Then let it shine
I've got the light, I've got the light
Then let it shine
Shine bright

(Verse)
Feel like a diamond in the rough
In solitary confinement, shackled in handcuffs
I got my vision aligned with in God we trust
A hundred million I'm comfortable but it's never enough
I remember catchin a buzz
But now I chauffeur that holster and hard to hold up the bus
But I don't see em, I got me a wife and BM
Two kids that's gon need the DM
Plus, I'm successful fetus, I swear my right hand to Jesus
To paper I pledge allegiance
Haters can suck my penis, rockin Versace sneakers
Rich as Serena, Venus
I live like I got a genie, yes
I came from the projects, I started a hot mess
But still ain't start yet
They gave me a option, I can sell rocks and
Resort to robbin to feel I dodged it, yes

(Chorus)
Is this what we were made for?
Oh Lord, stand bright and shine
Is this what we were made for?
Oh Lord, my light shines bright
I've got the light, I've got the light
Then let it shine
I've got the light, I've got the light
Then let it shine
I've got the light, I've got the light
Then let it shine
I've got the light, I've got the light
Then let it shine
Shine bright

Shine bright
